THE VENDOME COLUMN. Grcnt Shnft, "Worthy of the Man, in Whose Honor It Was Erected. Rising from the very heart of Paris stands this somber shaft of bronze, recall ing the career of the great Napoleon. The emperor was fond of rearing monuments In the style of the old Romans. This is in Imitation of the column of Trojan at Rome. On both those shafts, the Roman; and the French, are plates of bronze, adorned with figures in relief ascending toward the summit in ,-a spiral path. Inr this Vendome column not only do these figures represent events In Bonaparte's campaign of Austerlltz, but the bronze for tne plates themselves was made by melting down 1200 Austrian and Russian cannon. Upon tho summit, 112 feet high, stands the statue of Napoleon I. This is" not, however, the figure originally placed there. When the emperor had been banished to St." Helena the royalists took down his statue and crowned the shaft with a gigantic fleur-de-lis. But this decoration was, under the circumstances, so senseless that the Napoleonic figure was restored. The communists in their endeavor to ruin Paris actually pulled down this column in 1871, but happily the fragments were preserved nd It was re-erected In 1S75. The name "Vendome" was given to this shaft because the square In which it stands was called the Place Vendome from a palace which once stood here owned by the Duke of Vendome, a son of Henry IV. We are still giving to our patrons the handsome Napoleonic album, consisting of a series of superb photo engravings, accompanied by graphic descriptions from the pen of John L. Stoddard, which Illustrates every important event in the life of "The Man qf Destiny" from the time he left his native isle until, a prisoner In the hands of his enemies, he died In exile at St. Helena. The photo engravings are rare works of art, being reproductions from the most noted paintings and engravings In the world connected with Napoleon Bona parte. They are 11 by 13 inches In size, with sixteen views in each part. To secure any one of the numbers cut one first-page heading from The Ore gonlan with date line, and bring or send Jt with 10 cents to The Oregonlan office. We can also supply you with complete sets of this magnirtct-nt album for one heading and ?l 60. m VANDALS IN EGYPT. Temples and Idols Ruthlessly De stroyed for Building Materials. W. M. Flinders-Petrie, In a letter to the London Times, bewails the destruction of monuments and historical records which is going on in Egypt. He says that every season sees buildings ruthlessly destroyed for the sake of materials, and a host of objects plundered by the natives from towns and cemeteries, in order that they may be scattered without name or record among the tourist flock. Even those ob jects which pass into museums have lost most of their importance and of their value in losing all record of the original place and circumstances. The laws of Egypt may be excellent In theory, but In practice It Is well known that hundreds of persons join in this de structionyet no man is punished for it. There is, then, the most urgent need of saving all that is possible by complete and careful excavation, in which the his tory and meaning of every object shall be traced and recored as it is found. To any person not acquainted with the practical work of excavation it might seem that so long as these things are not actually de stroyed it does not matter whether it be an Arab or a trained observer that may find them. But there Is generally more history involved in the position and de tails of a discovery than in the object found. Fossils are worth but little if their strata are unknown. More scientific material has been de stroyed than preserved in many or most excavations even by Europeans and Egyptologists. He then proceeds to solicit for the Egyptian Research Account, which he says has been established, "not to undertake great clearances or exploits In the country, but to fit men for work of the highest class archeologically, and at the same time benefit our knowledge aud our museums, as far as may be, by means of their excavations." Mayor William L. Strong, of Xew York, has been presented with a looking-glass framed in old mahogany, which belonged to Mayor WillardV Uie first mayor of JCew 1 York city, who was elected in 1665.
